SCANGEN: Single-Cell Cancer Genomics

Workshop at ISMB 2018

Summary

The first workshop on single-cell cancer genomics (SCANGEN) will take place on July 10th at ISMB 2018 in Chicago, USA. The workshop aims to cover computational and statistical methods, models, and applications in single-cell cancer genomics.

Integrative analyses of multi-modal data: modelling of joint measurement assays (such as G&T-seq); relating and interpreting measurements from different technologies

Scalable inference at the single-cell level: scalable statistical inference for single-cell data using methods such as stochastic optimization; computational tools for dealing with large single-cell datasets

Interactions and perturbations at the single-cell level: how cells interact with their microenvironment; how cells respond to and resist chemotherapeutic interventions; how transcriptional programming and clonal selection are affected by genomic perturbations such as CRISPR
